" After his website review, Simon sent me an incredible list of changes to make to my site that I was able to easily implement in my own time rather than paying him for hours of work I knew I could do myself. You will not regret hiring Simon and I am absolutely certain your business performance will improve because of it! "

I’m not here to sell you “more website.” I’m here to help you build what you actually need.I’ve spent 10+ years designing websites for everyone from Fortune 500s to first-time founders. What I’ve learned working with local small businesses is this, small business owners don’t need more confusion. They need clarity. And they need a website that supports their goals without draining their time and money. That’s why I created StartWise.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What platform do you use?
A. I build websites on Squarespace. It's stable, clean, mobile-ready, and easy to teach. It provides simple control for your website, it handles a lot of responsiveness for you, and it's set up in a way that is hard to break, unlike other builders like Wordpress, Wix, or ShowIt.
Q. What should I expect for the website build?
A. In order to build the website in a single week, we'll need to prepare as much as we can beforehand. We will have an initial call to pick a day and setup what that week will look like, as well as walk through the documentation (the homework) that you will need to bring when we start.
These documents will include:
These documents will include:
- A set of questions to help define the look and feel of your website
- A content document that will help to fill out your website with words and images
Q. Can I update my site myself?
A. Yep! And I can teach you if you want. You tell me the amount of guidance you're looking for.
Q. Do you offer ongoing help?
A. I do. See my AMA package for ongoing support. If you're looking for someone to take on the content entry for you, we can discuss a monthly website maintenance package.
Q. What type of help can I expect from the Ask Me Anything offering?
A. This offering is fairly open-ended and meant to serve you in any way that I can via emails/texts. Here are some ways this service has been used by other business owners:
